Former Hawai‘i Chief Justice William S. Richardson—the founder, namesake and staunch advocate for the UH Mānoa law school—passed away on June 21 at the age of 90. An anticipated 8,000-10,000 people will pay tribute to him, on Thursday, July 8, from 10 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. at the Law School on Dole Street.

Expect increased traffic to and from the Law School and parking structure for the entire day and into the evening. The Zone 17 parking lot adjacent to the Law School will be closed to regular permit holders to accommodate this special event. All Zone 17 permit holders are asked to park in the lot fronting the music building complex or in the Zone 20 parking structure.

Access to the parking structure is encouraged via the Varsity Circle entrance or back entrance on Old Waialae Road.

Patrons of TheBus should be aware that increased traffic affects regular schedules.
